Intelligent tutoring system (ITS) provides learners with step-by-step problem-solving support through scaffolding. Most ITSs have been developed in the USA and incorporate American instructional strategies. How do non-American students perceive and use ITS with different native problem-solving strategies? The present study compares Stoich Tutor,…

This paper provides a longitudinal analysis of the understanding of repetition patterns by 24 Spanish children ages 3, 4 and 5, through representation and the type of justification. A mixed quantitative and qualitative study is conducted to establish bridges between algebraic thinking and computational thinking by teaching repetition patterns in…

Computational thinking (CT) competency is essential for K-12 students in the digital societies. Understanding the relationship between students' CT and relevant factors contributes to implementing and improving CT education. Most previous studies investigated the effect of demographic or attitudinal factors on CT performance; whereas few research…

Muchsini, Binti; Siswandari; Gunarhadi; Wiranto – Cogent Education, 2023
Computational thinking is seen as a basic and essential skill in the 21st century, but its development issue in accounting education is still relatively limited. Therefore, anchored in Wing's (2006) computational thinking theory, this study makes a case for developing problem-solving skills, which involve abstraction, decomposition,…

Huiyan Ye; Oi-Lam Ng; Zhihao Cui – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) has received much attention in mathematics education in recent years, and researchers have begun to experiment with the integration of CT into mathematics education to promote students' CT and mathematical thinking (MT) development. However, there is a lack of empirical evidence and new theoretical perspectives on the…

Ting-Ting Wu; Lusia Maryani Silitonga; Budi Dharmawan; Astrid Tiara Murti – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
The relationship between computational thinking (CT) and academic self-efficacy for building students' academic resilience--a trait crucial for problem-solving, peer relationships, and confidence development--was investigated. A mixed-methods approach was employed in a study involving 60 participants; half were given CT instruction and half were…

Some countries, including Indonesia, have a framework for understanding how students receive and process math concepts as new knowledge through learning styles. Learning style, particularly Kolb's model, is one of the learning styles that contribute to students' success in learning. Experts have explored the characteristics of Kolb's learning…

In light of current developments, there is an increasing effort to integrate computing-oriented activities into the education of children as young as two years old. Although the computing strand is not officially addressed in the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework (DfES, 2024), a small number of early years teachers in England…
